Hi. Since starting to play the game I have gradually been updating and replacing the rider photo's. I'm now half way through the 2009 season. What I want to know is, if I restart the game at the beginning of the 2008 season, will the riders retain the new photo's. Once they are edited in the CLEditor, do they remain, or will the database revert back to its state at the start of the 2008 season ? Regards Jaywol. |

It depends on how you've done it.
If you've just replaced the rider photos in gui/cyclist_photo (e.g. by overwriting csastre.tga with a 2009 picture of Sastre), they will stay. If you've edited the riders' photo column with an editor in your save game, these settings will be reset if you start over. |

Yes I've replaced the photos. What about riders which did not have any photo that I've added ? |

It's the same - but you have to add they're rider photo column if you have do that in the savegame only. If you have edited in the whole database, then they stay
Sorry for my bad english |

You'll have to redo them.
However, if you use the Advanced Editor, it should be possible to just copy over the column in DYN_cyclist. Extract the save game AND the DB. Then, open the save game's DYN_cyclist, find the photo column and copy it from the save game's DYN_cyclist to the DB's DYN_cyclist. |

Mmmmm. I knew this wasn't going to be easy. Havn't used the advanced editor before, but will give it a go. What is the name and location of the original DB ? |

Let me do it for you then. It's done in 5 minutes for me while it may take hours for you.
I need your save game and the DB you want to edit. The save game is located in My Documents\Pro Cycling Manager 2008\Database\Solo, and the DB is located in either My Documents\Pro Cycling Manager 2008\Database or Program Files\Cyanide\Pro Cycling Manager - Season 2008\Database
Upload these to https://www.mediaf... or attach them to your reply (replies). |

Ok, that's very kind. I will upload them when I get home. I will also give it a try myself as I'd like to learn how the editor works. Do you think it would be worth making the rider photo's available ? most are portraits taken from team websites. Regards Jaywol. |

If they are 2009 pictures, certainly, if they are 2008 pictures, I think most people have them.
And sure, feel free to give it a try yourself. That's what you will learn most of |

The other DB is simply the one that you want to use. I don't know which one that is. |
